Brevard's Got Talent Show to be featured during Founders' Day Fair

The Transylvania Heritage Museum will hold its 10th annual Founders' Day Fair on Saturday, September 1st. This year the festivities will be from 12:30-5:00 pm and will include a special Brevard's Got Talent show. Cash prizes will be awarded, with the top winner getting a cool $150 in honor of Brevard's Sesquicentennial year.

Judges will rate the participants on originality, technical ability, stage presence, and the difficulty of their selection. There will also be an opportunity for the crowd to cast a vote.

Brevard Mayor Jimmy Harris who suggested the event will act as the Master of Ceremonies.

“It will be a lot of fun,” says event organizer Rebecca Suddeth. “Not just for those competing but for all that come to see and cheer them on. It's a great opportunity for people to show off their talents and bring the community together at the same time.”
